Today's poll is about who our adopted NL team should be for the playoffs. We did this for the college post-season and it was pretty much a disaster. Everyone we picked went on to lose pretty quickly.

That said, my first choice is the Padres since we've had so much fun throughout the year with the folks over at Gaslamp Ball. We can win at fantasy football and they can have this World Series thing. They've never had one and we've been so greedy as Marlins fans to have collected two in the past decade.

But if Dex (or another Gaslamp Baller) feels that we're jinxing his boys by cheering for the Padres, we'll adopt another team. If it comes to that, the Astros probably make the most sense. Rastronomicals, of Crawfish Boxes fame, has also been a friend of the site - and he's a Marlins fan too.
